The NFLPA Dishes on How Players Can Get the Scoop on Agents

NFLPlayers.com has posted a great rundown on the importance of agent selection. Below are some highlights, but I recommend checking out the entire read at "Get the Scoop on Potential Agents From the NFLPA."

Highlights include:

“We have files on every agent,” said NFLPA Director of Salary Cap and Agent Administration Mark Levin. “We can tell a player what contracts an agent has negotiated, who they represent, what fees they charge and most importantly...”

"...players must always remember that this is a business relationship and that they are the boss..."

"Sometimes it is in the players’ best interest to have separate, independent people providing services beyond contract negotiation. By doing so, players can create a system of checks and balances with one professional reviewing the work of the others."
